Very disappointing experience that we regret.

Our matter was not handled as efficiently or, in any way, as thoroughly as it needed to be and this caused distress. Important questions went unanswered. The process made my entire family (of two generations) feel ignored. Nice woman just not what we had expected for important legal help. Be prepare...d to pay for each telephone call and email you exchange. High fees.

Terrific

Alyson has helped me, and our family, with several (diverse) estate, will, and elder-care matters and she's been wonderful in every respect. Alyson is knowledgeable, responsive, thorough, caring, principled, and wholly dedicated to her client's best outcomes. You could not possibly find a better adv...ocate for your needs, or the needs of a loved-one.

Superior Legal Service

Due to the untimely death of one relative, I was thrust into a dual position of Estate Administrator and Conservator of an elderly second relative. Since this situation was all new to me I had to rely extensively on legal guidance. Attorney Alyson Marcuccio was exemplary in this regard. The situation... with my relatives was somewhat complicated due to property title issues, asset identification, and interaction with the State over prior services provided by them to my deceased relative. Atty Marcuccio's knowledge of these issues was extensive and made what appeared to be a daunting task more than manageable. Furthermore, she was always available to be contacted either by phone or email and promptly and courteously returned messages. All required paperwork was promptly prepared and filed. Therefore, I wholeheartedly recommend the legal services of Attorney Alyson Marcuccio for any issue regarding Estate Planning or Probate.

Estate

Alyson is the best thing that could have happen to us in dealing with my minor son's estate. She has gone above and beyond my expectations. She has stood up for not just for my son's rights but also for mine as the natural guardian (mother). She has dealt with all aspects of this mess with the hi...ghest respect and regard. She is not in this for the money for she truly cares for the standings of a minor child. She has been on our case for almost three years and will continue to be to the end. My 13 year old son has been involved with what has been going on and one day after I got off the phone with Alyson my son said to me that he could not believe that someone like Alyson would really care about him. That really is something coming from the mouth of a babe as the saying goes. My son and I have been truly blessed with having Alyson as our lawyer.

Client

I hired Attorney Marcucio to review and draft a new estate plan for my family. We had young children and wanted to make sure we were protected in the event of a problem. Attorney Marcucio was patient with us and thoroughly explained the process and all the caveats to the documents. She drafted a t...rust to ensure our savings would be provided for our minor children in the event of a disaster. This is not something we knew we could do and we were impressed with her expertise and follow-through. Since then she was also hired by my elderly parents to draft a family trust and acquire Veterans and Medicaid benefits. I would highly recommend Attorney Marcucio to people of all ranges for their estate and elder law needs.
